Is Shade 80 (Butternut) right for you?
Garnier Nutrisse Medium Natural Blonde 80 (Butternut) is a pure, natural blonde, one shade lighter than Nutrisse Dark Natural Blonde 70 (Almond Creme). It will allow your natural tones to show through and will provide 100% gray coverage. Shade 80 (Butternut) is best for anyone with natural hair between light blonde and light brown.

If you would like a lighter shade that still reflects naturally, shade 90 (Macadamia) might be for you. If you would like to remain in the medium blonde range but would like to explore other reflects and tones, explore shade 82 (Champagne Fizz) and 83 (Cream Soda).

*For women with currently color treated hair, there are special considerations for the color result you can achieve. Because of this, we do not recommend shade 80 (Butternut) for hair that has been previously colored Light Natural Brown 60 (Acorn) or darker. For more help, use our Shade Selector Tool to find the perfect shade for you!

How to use:

Nutrisse nourishes while it colors with a rich, non drip creme formula, and with an ampoule of grape seed oil, it smells great while you apply.

Follow this step-by-step process when applying full-head color at home:

1) Always do a skin test by following the insert instructions in the kit 48 hours before.
2) Apply to dry, unwashed hair.
3) Apply gloves, squeeze colorant (B) into developer bottle (A).
4) Break off the tip and shake the bottle vigorously.
5) Start applying color at the roots, then away from roots to the tips.
6) Extend color through the ends, and massage into hair.
7) Leave formula on for 25 minutes or 30 minutes if you have lots of gray hair or resistant/coarse hair.
8) Massage hair thoroughly before rinsing to optimize rinsing process.
9) Rinse hair thoroughly until water runs clear.
10) Apply Nourishing Conditioner (D) and leave on for two minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

If you only need a root touch-up, please follow insert Touch-Up Application instructions.

learn to color your hair like a professional

Step 1: Prepare

Step 2: Mix

Screw the cap of the Developer Bottle on well, break off the tip, cover, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds or until mixture is even.

Step 3: Apply to Roots

Keeping the gloves on, apply the product to your dry, unwashed hair using the Developer Bottle as an applicator. Start at your roots, using the bottle to separate the hair section by section.

Step 4: Apply Through Ends

Then, apply the color throughout the length of your hair to the ends. When finished, massage into your hair and ensure it is evenly spread.

Step 5: Wait 25-30 Minutes

Allow the color to develop for 25 minutes. (If you have lots of gray hair, or if your hair is particularly resistant to color, you may leave on for up to 35 minutes.)

Step 6: Rinse & Condition

When time is up, keep your gloves on and apply a little water to your hair, massage to emulsify the colorant. Then, rinse thoroughly until water runs clear. Apply a generous amount of Nourishing Conditioner, leave on for 2-3 minutes, and rinse thoroughly. Keep the rest of your conditioner for two or more treatments to keep your hair feeling silky-soft and nourished.

Not blonde but not hating itI had dark brown hair and several grays. I wondering if this product would actually blonde me since it's intended for lighter browns. What I got was definitely not blonde but a beautiful light brown with red undertones (naturally have red undertones as well). I was nervous about the dramatic change from dark brown to blonde so I was actually very happy with this result being a happy medium. The pictures show a few hours after dying. It has lightened up a little more but still a light brown and gorgeous. My hair before looked damaged and ratty but the product gave my hair a soft texture, smoothed it out, and gave it a healthy glow. I feel very happy and feel more confident as I transition from stay at home mom to mom going back to college.

Waste of time & moneyMy natural hair color is light brown with some natural blond highlights. I got this to freshen up my color and cover the gray I’m getting. Followed directions exactly and my hair is still the same. No gray coverage at all.

Hyper Ash Color!So, I read the reviews, looked at the pics knowing they were not going to terribly realistic but thought if anything, my hair might look kind of a light strawberry blonde at the worst. My hair is very healthy looking but the color looks super abnormal and almost has a blue or green cast to it. My normal hair color is a darker neutral blonde wirth gray and it was dyed a very light blonde. Can't wait for the looks at work tomorrow! What can I do to make this a more normal looking color?

New userTried this haircolor when I couldn't find the product I've used for years, and had a great result. Like the natural color and shine and my hair is even better after a second use. My other product did not retain the natural color, it got too light and frizzy looking, now it looks very healthy. Glad they were out of my old product, yours is much better..........hope you keep this one on the shelves!
